Our cat is a MOUSER!!(she's a Killah!!!!!)

[underpants]

A couple of weeks ago it became apparent that we might have a mouse problem so I took the normal precautions (traps and poisons and such) and found a dead baby mouse on our back porch this weekend. One down but I was sure that more were to come.

Last night there was much activity in the sector. The girl, a Maine coon cat named "Pepper", was ever alert and diligent. The boy, a blonde tabby named "Sundance", appointed himself General and was a far away from the action as possible-staying on the dresser/kitchen table/coffee table high ground. He was "supervising" "leading" as Generals do.

At about 10:30 a commotion was noticeably coming from the bedroom and into the living room came running a little mouse. It took a quick left and jumped through/behind the bookcase. Pfc. Pepper was directly behind it, I got up but couldn't see anything. Pfc. Pepper stayed on her guard post through out the night as per her first general order and General Sundance retired to the climbing post (on top) to review his plans.

I got a call from my wife this morning that Operation First Strike had been a success. She is waiting on her ride to go to see the Orioles and the Red Sox play in Baltimore this afternoon-"Corporate team building" they call it.

Pfc. Pepper got A mouse in the kitchen. Blood was everywhere and both of the cats are okay but Pfc. Pepper has "tasted" blood and wants more.

As they often do General (surely 2 stars now) Sundance was in the middle of the living room on the coffee table regally puffing up his chest and willing to field questions from the media on his incredible leadership, success, and how well his plan came together.

I think Pepper should get a promotion.
